Growing up on the Lizard peninsula, my practice is rooted to Cornwall’s edges. Art, life and landscape merge to become a kind of messy imperfection. I am not concerned for now with what is complete, but instead with how to begin. My starting point is landscape, but as life unfolds, so this practice follows a process all of its own.
